Background and Aims:Whether to close mesenteric fissures during laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer remains controversial.Traditional suture closure is technically demanding and may injure mesenteric vessels.This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of using α-cyanoacrylate medical glue to close mesenteric fissures during laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer in the Department of Colorectal Surgery,the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University,from January 2022 to December 2023.Seventy-eight patients who received intraoperative α-cyanoacrylate glue closure of mesenteric fissures were included as the observation group,and 74 patients without fissure closure were selected as the control group using the propensity score matching method.Perioperative parameters,postoperative recovery,and complications were compared between the two groups.Results:No significant differences were observed in baseline characteristics or main intraoperative variables between groups(all P>0.05).The observation group had significantly less ascitic drainage within 3 days after operation[(203.14±116.44)mL vs.(384.53±243.89)mL,P<0.01]and shorter postoperative gas passage,defecation,and drainage tube removal times(all P<0.01).The incidence of postoperative complications and intestinal obstruction was comparable between groups(all P>0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that intraoperative application of α-cyanoacrylate glue was an independent promoting factor for intestinal exhaust within 3 days after surgery(OR=5.739,P=0.000).Conclusion:The use of α-cyanoacrylate medical glue for closing mesenteric fissures during laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer is safe and feasible.It effectively reduces postoperative ascitic drainage and accelerates bowel recovery,offering a simple and reliable alternative to traditional suture closure.

Objective To develop a self-assessment scale for medication literacy in patients with coronary heart disease comorbidity diabetes and to test its reliability and validity.Methods According to medication literacy theory model,the initial scale was formed through literature review,the qualitative interview and expert inquiry.Cognitive interview was used to optimize the expression of item text.421 patients with coronary heart disease comorbidity diabetes in a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang province from November 2022 to April 2023 were selected to investigate the reliability and validity of the scale by convenience sampling.Results The self-assessment scale of drug literacy for coronary heart disease comorbidity diabetes mellitus included 23 items in 5 dimensions including acquisition,understanding,communication,evaluation and calculation.The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.911;the retest reliability was 0.948;the average content validity index was 0.997;the correlation coefficients between each dimension and total score of the scale and the calibration scale ranged from 0.485 to 0.926.The exploratory factor analysis was employed to extract 5 common factors,and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 73.753％.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the scale factor structure was stable.Conclusion The scale has good reliability and validity,and it can be used as an effective tool to evaluate the self-rated medication literacy level of patients with coronary heart disease comorbidity diabetes.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum phosphorus variability and mortality in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods A total of 502 MHD cases from Renji hospital hemodialysis center were registered in Shanghai Registry Network from January 2007 to April 2015. They were recruited with general information, laboratory results and outcomes. According to their median of coefficient of variation (CV) of blood phosphorus, the patients were divided into high variation group (CV≥0.226 mmol/L) and low variation group (CV<0.226 mmol/L). The relationship of serum phosphorus CV with all?cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality was assessed respectively. Results The average age was (63.9±14.6) years, the median dialysis age was 82.0 (43.0, 139.0) months, 118 patients (23.5%) died for all cause and 64 patients (12.7%) died for cardiovascular disease. Compared with patients in low phosphorus variation group, patients had a higher all?cause mortality in high phosphorus variation group (27.7% vs 19.3%, P=0.028). Higher cardiovascular disease mortality was observed in high variation group as well, but this difference was no statistical significant (15.4% vs 10.0%, P=0.082). COX regression analysis showed that >60 years of age (HR=2.762, 95%CI 1.707?4.468, P<0.001), low hemoglobin (HR=0.466, 95%CI 0.317?0.686, P<0.001), low albumin (HR=0.555, 95%CI 0.366?0.840, P=0.005), high CV of phosphorus (HR=1.479, 95%CI 1.023 ? 2.139, P=0.037) were independent risk factors for all ? cause mortality. Moreover, >60 years of age (HR=2.666, 95%CI 1.469?4.837, P=0.001), low hemoglobin (HR=0.480, 95%CI 0.238?0.801, P=0.005), and high CV of phosphorus (HR=1.655, 95%CI 1.003?2.729, P=0.049) were independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease mortality. There was no significant statistical difference between patients phosphorus on target and patients phosphorus below target in all?cause disease mortality (P=0.065) and cardiovascular disease mortality (P=0.425). High variation group whose phosphorus on target had higher all?cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality than those in low variation group (29.2% vs 16.9%, P=0.047; 15.0% vs 6.0%, P=0.033). Kaplan?Meier method showed that patients with high phosphorus variation had higher all?cause (P=0.023) and cardiovascular disease mortality (P=0.047) than patients with low phosphorus variation. Conclusions The high CV of phosphorus is independently correlated with all?cause and cardiovascular disease mortality. Patients with standard ? reaching phosphorus in the low variation group have a lower mortality. A serum phosphorus level sustainably reaching the standard may improve the survival in MHD patients.
